Samuel Cousins

I'm a web developer for First Pier. While I build websites, I do a lot more as well, dealing with online services for business, email, databases, social media, etc.

I moonlight as a freelance photographer, covering concerts and social events. My goal is to take photos that make others wish they'd been at that event. Take a look at some of my favorites.

I am a huge fan and proponent of local music. To help further the local industry, I serve on the board of directors for the Portland Music Foundation.

What's the most under-appreciated place or thing in town? The quality of local music. We have a shockingly high number of local musicians who are putting out amazing work. I've been to larger cities who do not have it as good.
